General Information

Phrygian Cooking Ware is a basic fabric used for cooking vessels. Vessels are medium levigated with added grit and other inclusions and voids in the fabric. They are fired in a range of colors from dark gray to gray-brown to brown. Exterior surfaces are generally smoothed but not usually treated otherwise.

Vessels come in only two forms: one and two-handled cooking pots with everted rim. Bottoms are sometimes round, and sometimes flattened. The great majority of cooking pots have rim diameters of 15-20 cm, although a slightly smaller exists of about 12 cm in diameter.
